Funny to observe lefties wrestle with intellectualism outside their standard marxist fields because their confident fumbling of the jargon makes it transparent how its just a rhetorical smoke screen for verbal agitprop. Doesn’t matter none itt know what they’re talking about:
they’re counting on few bothering to look past their inane counter-framing, but I know ure curious: what they miss about Musk’s point is gov “investment” referenced was loan payed back w interest, shares were never due; he references cap bc it resulted in huge returns to economy.
Screencap has not even a tenuous relation to Marx, total non sequitir. They’re just trying to Aha! him for not understanding difference btwn capitalization & shares divestment, an that argument rests on them not understanding difference between a government grant & an investment
But at a glance, OP does do a pretty convincing job at pitching her narrative don’t you think? Swarmed by NPC crowd consensus too. Who wants to spend the mental effort to unpack its absurdity? This is the process of their Marxist cultural studies; jargon is a rhetorical device.
An aside, when you realize the big point they’re trying to make is just “Elon Musk is dumber than us guys really!!!“ (I assume this is to justify their slave dogma that their elites are better by luck not merit) it’s not only pathetic but also quite funny they fail to succeed
